Australia's Jelena Dokic has withdrawn from next week's Canberra Classic with the recurrence of a groin injury.
Tournament director Gerard Corradini said Dokic had aggravated the problem after her first-round loss in Auckland earlier this week.

"Jelena was clearly disappointed that she wouldn't be able to play in Canberra," Corradini said.

"With the right treatment, she is quite confident she will be right for the Australian Open."
